Matthews Is Bank's Representative in Newberry County The First Carolinas Joint Stock Land bank of Columbia, S. C., is now ready to do business in Newberry Mr A P T.pvpr for manv years a member of congress from the 7th congressional district, from which office he resigned to accept a place on the Federal Farm Loan board, is at the head of this new bank, with headquarters in Columbia, S. C. Mr. Lever is well known in Newberry, and it is a source of pleasure to his many friends here to know that the destiny of this new land bank is in his hands. Mr. Lever recently re - - ? *-ii * s:gncd his place on the Jfeaerai rarm Loan board to become head of this institution, and Gov. R. A. Cooper was then appointed to the place on said beard made vacant by Mr. Lever's resignation. By reason of his long service in congress as chairman of the committee on agriculture, and as a member of the Federal Farm Loan board, Mr. Lever is exceptionally well qualified to render valuable services to the farmers of South Carolina. Mr. B. C. Matthews has been named the local representative of this bank for Newberry county. When asked for a statement as to terms of loan, methods of operation, etc., Mr. Matthews said: "The First Carolinas Joint Stock Land Bank of Columbia, S. C., is chartered under the federal farm loan act and is operated under the same federal supervision of the Federal Farm Loan board. 11 is the fir3t of these banks to be organized for 1 * ? - ? I.? ? r'nwftliwao ousiness in uie iwu uaivnnac. bank operates very rrnch along the same lines as does the Federal Land bank of Columbia and under the same supervision?being a part of the farm loan system, it ie intended to furnish the farmers of the state an opportunity to procure besic capital upon such reasonable terms of repayment of principal and at such reasonable rates of interest as shall make the burden so eai?y to bear as that the farmer desiring capital, either to purchase lands or for improvement purposes, need not hesitate to assume it.' Loans are made on improved farm lands only. Applications of less than $1000.00 will not be accepted by the bank, nor will loans be made in sums of more than $25,000.00. Loans run for 33 years; the rate of interest is now 6 per cent, payable semi-annually, to which is added annually one per cent, which extinguishes the debt at the end of that period. It will thus be seen that loans are made on the 'Amortization' plana?the borrower pays the same amount every six months, more and more of which represents prinn vi /-J loo; onr? 1 Oct i r> + ITOst T 'f v. i|/a?j cmvt wiiu ivww *- ? y however, the borrower desires to discharge the mortgage before the end of the 33 years he is permitted, under the law, after five years to do so, and may do so even before the expiration of the five years under certain rulings of the Farm Loan board. The borrower may, 11 ne aesires. increase his annual payments, which will serve to reduce te length of Ms mortgage. Loans will not exceed 50 per cent of the appraised value of the land, as determined by government appraisers. The bank deals directly with the borrower; all proceeds of these loans must be used for agricultural purposes. I feel confident that this institution is going to be of great service to the farmers of this county and state." ? , . . . , i inose aesiring: more lniormanon about this institution and the terms i and methods of loans may get full information from Mr. B. C. Matthew*, president of the National fl Bank of Newberry, S. C. If we think we can succeed, we yM will succeed. If we think we will fail, we will i .il. It wouldn't be necessary to talk about saving daylight if we didn't waste so much of our nights. No news from Mexico seems to be fl . erood news. 4 ^B'W:M
